Abstract
A heating apparatus () includes a high frequency power supply (), a left conductive plate (), a right conductive plate (), a left heating coil (), and a right heating coil (). The left heating coil () includes a left conductor portion (). The left conductor portion () faces a gear tooth () of a helical gear () and extends in a direction orthogonal to the direction in which the gear tooth () extends. The left heating coil () includes a focusing magnetic body () which focuses magnetic flux in the left conductor portion () and concentrates the magnetic flux on a surface of the gear tooth (). The left heating coil () includes an upper inducing magnetic body () which induces a part of the magnetic flux flowing in a tooth root of the gear tooth () into a tooth tip of the gear tooth ().
